confirming that the man who may give the most compelling, inspirational speech of tonight's convention is clinton eastwood. yes, dirty harry, the outlaw josie wales, the high plains drifter. he will be in the house as the mystery guest, no longer a mystery, but for mitt romney, the question remains. do you feel lucky because this is the night of mitt's life as he prepares to assume the mantle of republican nominee, the crowning achievement in his year's long ambitious to be president of the united states. as i've said, they've been busy building out the stage. mr. romney as you're watching now, has gone through a walk through and has just left the main stage. and while he may have been preparing for this moment since he went to his first rnc convention at age just 17, romney's own young gun veepster may prove a difficult act to follow. we learned last night that paul ryan can deliver the red meat that republicans demand. we also learned that his nimble physique translated to his very flexible backbone with no compunction about bending, twisting, even crushing the truth. indeed, mr. ryan spewed so

bill clinton, lord knows, that's what it was all about with that guy. and this guy, i mean, can't do it at all. by the way, that's also the magic of the tea party movement. >> can't you imagine having some caviar with mitt romney? bellinis? >> with special spoons you have to eat it with. it can't be silver. it's got to be whatever it is. i'm sure mitt romney can tell you all about it. he just can't switch it on. not only that, this is the republican party and conservatism generally has been coasting on this notion, this sort of populist aura that hoverses around them and he's the opposite, you know. he's -- i was reading this great story in "rolling stone" the other day by matt taibbi about how mitt romney is like all of the terrible movie villains of the last 30 years. you know, he's the rich fraternity boy that's such a snob to the guys in animal house, right? you go down the list of movie villains and this is the kind of guy. perfectly, well coifed executives who fire everybody. >> thomas, i'm so grateful to you, but i'm afraid we've run out of time.

bill clinton really answered this, and it was about giving more flexibility to allow more people to work and get their way off welfare. this was tightening, not loosening the work requirement in welfare, and the ryan campaign, the romney campaign is basically making a bogus claim and trying to run on the big lie. >> indeed. now, paul ryan and house speaker john boehner repeatedly claim the mantle of courage when it comes to facing the tough issues. take a listen, sir. >> we are not going to duck these tough issues. >> others want to kick the can down a road. >> we will not duck the tough issues. we will lead. >> my colleagues behind me know how serious i feel about stopping this business of kicking the can down the road. >> okay. so today when speaker boehner was asked about a bill to help america's struggling farmers, we just knew that he would not, he would never kick the can down the road. take a listen. >> we will deal with the farm bill after the election. when we get back, we will deal with the issue of the farm bill. >> mr. welsh, can you think of anyone who is calling for this pr
